On a nice day, the park will be full of pups! They have a small dog area and a very large general area. Plenty of room for the dogs to get in a good run! The parking is close to the fence/gate, which is nice for minimizing the distance to go with a super excited dog. In the winter months, they "winterize" and shut off the drinking fountain and hose, so if you come then, be sure to bring your own water. Other times of the year it's available for drinks for people and pups! After it rains, the areas closest to the gate (that you have to walk through) can get very muddy/ soggy. But, the far edge of the enclosure where there's some benches in a mulched (or was it gravel, I can't remember) area wasn't too bad... if you can convince your dog to stay in that area, you might be able to make it out requiring only a paw wipe down (as opposed to a full bath). On the occasions I've been, the dogs seemed well socialized and the owners were attentive, no issues with non-playful behaviors. read more
